Thanks for teaching me a lot about indigenous history in Canada. I am inspired to learn more. I just finished Chelsea Vowel’s book, Indigenous Writes and I’m currently reading the summary of the RCAP.

Thank you! Well presented, well written, and highly detailed. I was able to gain a much deeper understanding of Canada's colonial past as each course was able to link to the next.

This has been an incredible opportunity to learn about Canada's history that is erased from the the history taught in schools. It has been a privilege to engage with this content.

The course was a real eye-opener I now have a much wider appreciation of the Indigenous peoples' issues in Canada - by association other counties like Australia and USA. Thanks.

Great course! As an indigenous individual I thought I knew quite a bit about my own history and the history of other nations but I was shown so much more in this course.
Thank You!

This course is amazing. I wish all Canadians took it and learned about our history. I cannot thank the University of Alberta Native Studies program enough for this. Life changing!

Fantastic course! A lot material to cover, I would like like more interactive activities rather than just optional discussion. I enjoyed the videos and the notes taking ability.
